Abstract

Tüm ülkelerde COVID 19 pandemisi nedeniyle K12 öğrencilerinin eğitimi, yüz yüze eğitime alternatif olan çevrim içi eğitimle yaygın bir şekilde sağlanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, K12 öğrencilerinin ve velilerinin çevrim içi İngilizce öğrenmeye yönelik algılarını belirlemektir. Bu karma yöntem çalışmasındaki amaçlar dikkate alınarak anketler ve odak grup görüşmeleri yapılmıştır. Betimleyici istatistikler ve içerik analizi, dilin unsurlarını geliştirme fırsatını yansıtırken, çocukların dikkatlerinin kolayca dağıldığını, akranları ve İngilizce öğretmenleriyle etkileşimlerinde eksiklikleri vurgulamaktadır. Bu güncel araştırma, ebeveynlerin çocuklarının çevrim içi öğrenme süreçlerine dâhil olmasının önemini de ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca veliler çevrim içi eğitimdense hibrit sistemi tercih ettiklerini belirtmektedirler.
